I absolutely hate this addon because it does its job. I recommend it!

Works as described and I've found it much more effective than simply blocking a website and it breaks the autopilot of visiting a site when distracted.

does what it says on the tin. Works great at making you more aware of your browsing habits.

The only fault i could find is that it is somewhat inconsistent as to when you get the breath screen. Sometimes it doesn't trigger when you come from other apps, and sometimes it triggers even though you're navigating within a website. due to the short duration of the breath screen it isn't to bothersome though, just not as accurate as it could be.

Ich finde die Idee super! Hab es auf dem Smartphone für Apps und den Browser und jetzt auch auf dem Rechner.

This extension is amazing at stopping doom scrolling. This has helped me focus a lot better since I started using it on both my phone and desktop browser. Simple but perfect for discouraging distractions.

My favorite extension I have ever had for my computer and iphone. Waste less time and I'm aware of what I'm doing constantly. Feels much less tyrannical than blockers.

Works as expected, prevents me from failing finals.

Work as expected!

amazing
2 clicks to install & works flawlessly

Struggling with internet/pornography addiction. This extension is a lifesaver. Helps create some of the self-control I've been lacking. Cheers to the creators!

nice extension for all kind of diets. simple work style. i loved it!

Amazing extension that actually manages to reduce unnecessary website switching, really makes you think before entering procrastination mode.

Great extension, although I had one problem with it so far, concerning the addition of domains that have more than one .something after the domain's name.

I'm not very tech savvy so I'm not sure about the best way to phrase this, but, basically, it seems the problem concerns domains that are specific to some countries. So, for example, ''something.co.uk'', or ''something.com.fr''. Whenever I try to add these sites to the block list, they are added with a comma instead of a dot preceding the country defining part of the domain (like ''something.co,uk''), and the extension doesn't work on these sites. I've tried both swapping the comma for a dot (something.co.uk) and removing the country defining part entirely (something.co) and leaving just the .com or the .co, etc, but neither made the extension be triggered by entering the sites.

Also, I had an idea that I'd like to share: one thing that I think could be interesting would be for the ''I don't want to open (...)'' button to be accessible from the start, whilst the ''continue on (...)'' would continue to appear only after the take a deep breath animation finished, so the person using the extension could have a bigger chance of choosing to refrain from using the site. Maybe it could be a toggleable customization.

I have the phone app for this, and I was very excited when I discovered the extension. While it doesn't have (or need) all the functionalities of the phone app - although I believe they are working on adding more - it does the main thing it is supposed to do (delay visiting a website). For me, this was honestly a huge deal. Just blocking websites using other extensions didn't work for me, I ended up unblocking them because I still wanted to visit the site itself. With this, it actively makes me reflect on why I want to visit the site, or if I want to visit it at all. I end up spending a lot less time on these websites, which I am very grateful for.

Overall, this extension has been a very big deal for me, just as the phone app has.

By the way, if you have similar issues with opening up apps on your phone and you have IOS - I highly recommend going to check out the phone app.

Edit in response to Frederik: Yes, I agree! The extension as-is works very well, being able to add websites to the list with a couple clicks, adjust exercise duration, and configure intentional switching is great and they all work seamlessly. Adding additional functionalities on top is just icing on the cake :)

Great idea and execution, though the intentional switching is sometimes a little glitchy.

It would be good if in addition to the deep breath, there was also some additional, dynamic friction introduced. For example, the buttons ('I do not want to visit X' / 'I want to visit X') could shift position to a different corner of the screen each time the extension is displayed, in order to actively engage the user at the point of making the choice. As it is, I find that already I am in the habit of just waiting the 5 seconds then automatically clicking the 'I want to visit X' button, which somewhat undermines the goal of the extension.

This is my problem, of course, but adding a little extra, dynamic friction of this kind to the interstitial page after the breath would strengthen the question of whether I *really* want to visit the website -- and thus enhance the value of the extension.
